Lower calorie red wines?
This has probably been posted before, but, are there any red wines which are lower calorie ?? I read that typical red wine is 25 calories per ounce, but that there are "diet" red wines, at only 100 calories per FOUR ounces? What is it called, anyone know? anyone know any to recommend??? I am on tight budget, btw. THANK YOU…

Progress?
Kind of disappointing, how few active members are left in THIS group. How much exercise or activity can your heart currently tolerate? How much progress have YOU made ?? I am still going slowly, but it's getting easier and easier. I have hope for progress. Anyone here with valve diseases and arrhythmias?

Maybe there is no "starvation" mode, read this
Here is an interesting article, which i noticed on some post in main forum. http://www.leangains.com/2010/10/top-ten-fasting-myths-debunked.html I can not vouch for accuracy of that article, but, it seems to be sensible, and it seems to be saying this whole "starvation" mode may not be true for all people.
